Finance Minister Abderrahmane Raouya presented the draft Finance Law for 2026 to the People’s National Assembly on Sunday. The session, chaired by Speaker Ibrahim Boughali and attended by government officials, focused on the bill’s strategic objectives for national economic development.
The Minister emphasized that the draft law is framed within a context of gradual recovery in the Algerian economy. He credited this progress to government initiatives across various sectors. A key focus remains on stimulating investment, diversifying the economy, revitalizing major infrastructure projects, and boosting exports.
Raouya outlined projected budget expenditures for 2026 at approximately 7,176.36 billion Algerian dinars. Revenue is expected to reach 8,009 billion dinars. He stressed that the draft law carefully considers both national and international economic developments, particularly the anticipated performance of sectors beyond hydrocarbons.
Economic growth for 2026 is projected at 4.1 percent, with further increases to 4.4 percent in 2027 and 4.5 percent in 2028. This upward trend, according to the Minister, reflects sustained improvements in economic indicators and the effectiveness of government policies aimed at fostering financial stability and promoting economic development in Algeria.
The 2026 Finance Bill signals a continued commitment to strategic economic planning and diversification in Algeria.
